Thank you for your videos. As tourists come to your country and travel the ring road, would you be able to expand on your best restaurants in Iceland and show us the best restaurants on the ring road?

[@rhirhicakez]

Take a shot of Brennivín every time Hrafna: - Eats lamb - Spills her drink - Drops her food - Takes a shot of Brennivín I love that you keep it real and include the clumsy moments in your videos:) Very relatable lol

[@thecentalist3160]

You forgot every time she says delicious

[@nelskrogh3238]

Those are some great places. They take their cocktails very seriously in Iceland.

[@nn2009ify]

Yes indeed. And they are awesome.

[@Slakus]

Man, Tapas was playing the song of my people. Wepa!!! Much love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷!!

[@SphereofCygnus]

Iceland is on my bucket list of places to visit! Everything looks so good. Thanks Hrafna, I hope to visit Iceland someday soon! 🤞😊🙏🇮🇸

[@KanyeT1306]

The biggest problem I had eating when in Iceland was the prices. The food there is _very_ expensive, so I couldn't really get the full experience. I actually went to Fjallkonan and got some fish and chips, which were kind of disappointing, to be honest. I also went to a restaurant called Salka Valka, which is downhill along the main road from Hallgrimskirkja, and got myself a dish of plokkfiskur. That was really delicious. If you are going to Iceland, definitely go with the intention of spending big on food. It is worth the experience. I tried to save a bit of money and it was just terribly depressing living off of snacks for a week lol.

[@junebeen5795]

Should have dined and dashed, lol

[@MeowMeow-vo9cj]

What is the cost of an average 3 course meal in an average class restaurant in Iceland? I’m going next month and before we signed up we didn’t know that the food is very expensive. 😅

[@OzHunter]

@@MeowMeow-vo9cj I'd say $50 minimum at an ok restaurant.

[@jeremybatten1791]

I didn’t have a problem you just have to research on the cheapest places to eat sure it’s still expensive but it wasn’t anything crazy just got to find the right places

[@madeleinedm859]

This video made me soooo hungry but it is actually almost 11 o' clock at night in Greece! I should be sleeping not eating! Thank you for your wonderfully delicious recommendations!

[@jtbrownjtbrown]

I like the music in the background. 5:08

[@crazydillan8430]

Not gonna lie, the food looks delicious but the proportions aren't up to par with what I'm used. How much are you spending on a typical sitting?

[@jc3drums916]

I'm pretty sure those aren't entrees. You're supposed to order ~2 or 3 different dishes per person, and sharing is encouraged.

[@vinslungur]

If you're used to American portions then you will be very disappointed haha

[@BerraLJ]

So how many banks do you need to rob to afford a place like Apotek? How often do Icelandic people eat out during a month? is it like close to daily or more a festive thing when the pay check arrives or something in between? eating out while nice can get very expensive to.

[@ArnoldHopfenstrudel]

As far as I experienced Icelanders don't eat out often at restaurants bc it's too expensive Also, my icelandic teacher told me it's even a thing to eat at Ikea on Christmas bc it's cheap 😅 Sure this is just what I came across and doesn't apply to everyone ☺️

[@BerraLJ]

@@ArnoldHopfenstrudel I have heard it is expensive on Iceland but never been there.

[@vinslungur]

We usually go to fast food places because fine dining is expensive. The restaurants I eat at usually cost me like $20-$30.

[@BerraLJ]

@@vinslungur that sounds manageable i currently have $1100 to live on each month and that should cover rent, electricity, internet and food, so eating out is a no no.

[@JaneG]

@@BerraLJ It is expensive it hurts!

[@d.2605]

What seems great about Reykjavik/Iceland is that there is actually culture and style there. Almost everywhere I’ve ever seen that is quite isolated like that is almost rural to the point of being country/simple in a way that makes it kinda boring if you are young or want to go to clubs etc. Anyway, very cool.

[@rolandgrobler1288]

Great video Hrafna...really cracked myself up when you dropped the sushi LOL...luv your channel and learning a lot about Iceland, keep it up

[@DidrickNamtvedt]

OMG this video made me so hungry from watching all the delicious food you had with your mom and your friends lol! And the drinks look really exciting too, definitely gonna try some of those restaurants next time I'm in Iceland! :)

[@hoser7706]

We loved Tapas. The minke is the best thing I have ever eaten! Missed the others but will hit all next time. Next year! Only two weeks back home and I already miss Iceland. Something connected for me.

[@comom2055]

Or vegans?

[@sarinavriel]

i'm vegan and always find something. gló and mandi in reykjavík are good. við voginn in djúpivogur, the soup company in vík, gamli baukur in húsavík and sjávarborg in hvammstangi are amazing but you´ll find something like a veggie burger everywhere you go, don´t worry

[@Stormageddon571]

From this video, I can gather that the trifecta of Icelandic food is fish, lamb, and alcohol

[@nn2009ify]

It is. And such good food quality. Fresh and clean flavors.

[@dennisgoff4723]

Perhaps in Order: Alcohol, Meat & Dairy. LoL 👌🏾

[@josephtaylor5909]

Seems like I like fish but I'm not fond of it not cooked

I was in Iceland some weeks ago and I missed these places but will try them the next time. I went to others like Ingólfsskáli (at Ölfus), Greifinn (at Akureyri) and Grillmarkaðurinn (at Reykjavík). I did see Sushi Bar but I had recently come from being a month in Japan and honestly was tired of so much sushi lol.

Back in the late 1800’s Prikið was a rooming house and my great grandparents lived there after they were married before they emigrated to Canada. Just walking though the place was exciting to see the original fixtures and wonder which room might have been theirs. 💕🇮🇸🇨🇦
